Toronto shoe boutique Balisi, which stocks a great selection of Philip Sparks footwear and clothing, launched a third location (439 Danforth) last night. The Greektown shop opens to the public today and carries men’s and women’s shoes, clothing and accessories.

We spotted some Philip Sparks dress shirts, vests and pants on the racks at last night’s party. For Philip Sparks shoes, the Queen West location (711 Queen West) still has the best selection.
